Once upon a time, in a world where only pokemon exists right at the Air Continent, there was a Brionne who was roaming around a deep forest. She was moving around using her left flipper while using her right flipper to carry a basket full of berries.

Brionne: "I better get there as quick as I could, I can't let the Diner down."

After a while, she finally arrives at a spesific spot in the forest where there were a lot of berries as far as the eyes could see, hanging on the bushes even on the trees. She start off her berry hunt by picking the ones she could pick around the bushes.

Brionne: "Thank goodness they are still ripe. I couldn't imagine what it would be like if these aren't ripe.."

She kept picking the berries she could get and at some point, eating on of them for herself. After she's done with the berry bushes, she started looking for any good berries that was hanging in the trees.

Brionne: "Hmm... Aha! Here's a good one!"

She breath in as much as she could before she shoots out Water Gun that hits several of berries which made them fell all over the ground.

Brionne: "Hehe, I still got it. Now let's-"

Out of nowhere, a loud thump sound was heard from far across where she's at which took her by surprise. It quickly came to her thought that it sounds like something fell down.

Brionne: "Huh? Did I hit another berry? Well, I better go grab it, can't waste them around."

After picking the berries she shoot down, she started crawling forward towards where the thumping sound was heard from.

Brionne: "It should be around here, if I heard correctly. But, I don't see any berries around here-"

Brionne suddenly felt something dropping on her head which stopped her from crawling, she could tell it was a drop of water hitting her head. She slowly look up to see where it came from. To her surprise, she saw a Chespin lying in the branches in a position where his legs and arms got caught up in between them and he was soaking wet, covered by the berries's juice.

Brionne: "Oh Arceus! Hold on, I-I'll get you down!"

She started looking around out of panic to find anything that could help her get him down, but she couldn't find anything useful. She decides to shoot down Hydro Pump which made her able to fly towards the branch where the Pokemon is stuck on. She then helps freeing him from the branches which to her surprise while she was helping him out of them, he was already knocked unconcsious.

Brionne: "Uh-Oh, he couldn't got hit by my water gun, could he? P-Please stay with me!"

After finally getting him out of the branches, she starts making a bubble pillow which then she use to land down safely on the ground while carrying him on her flippers, she then set him down on the ground and tries to check if he's still alive by checking his veins.

Brionne: "Mmm... Thank goodness, he's okay. Did he fell from the sky or something? No wonder he's out cold like this."

Chespin: "Nggh..."

Brionne: "Huh?"

She took notices that his eyes are squinting and he let out some soft grunts, he opens his eyes and the first thing he see was her face.

Chespin: "Huh? A... Brionne..?"

Brionne: "Thank Arceus, you're okay! I was worried something bad was gonna happened to you!"

Chespin: "Huh? Wh-What are you-"

The Chespin reach out to his neck and notices something was missing which made him jumped out of her flippers and his expression escalate to panicking.

Chespin: "M-My headband! Where is it?!"

Brionne: "Huh? Your what?"

Chespin: "My headband! I swear I had it on my neck! No no no I can't lose that!!"

He looked around the area and around the tall grass, he then notices something shining at his eyes which caught his attention. Lucky for him, it was the headband he was looking for. The headband was blue and has a metal plate with a strange symbol on the plate. He then put it on around his neck while smiling wide in relieve.

Chespin: "Thank goodness, I thought I was going to lose you for sure!"

Brionne: "Oh? Is that headband precious to you?"

Chespin: "Of course it is! Well, let's just say a person precious to me gave it to me."

Brionne: "Huh? A person?"

Chespin: "Oh, right. You're a Pokemon, right? Well, a person means a human, like me!"

Brionne: "Wait what? A human? But... You looked like a normal Chespin to me."

Chespin: "Huh? Don't be silly! Of course I'm a-"

A sudden silent filled the area for a moment, he then looked at his own body for a moment before he goes back to panicking again.

Chespin: "WAIT WHAT THE HELL?!?! I-I'M A CHESPIN!?! WAIT, IS THAT HOW I COULD UNDERSTAND YOU?!!"

Brionne: "Umm... You were searching around and you just noticed that now?"

Chespin: "NO!! HOW DID THIS HAPPENED?! No, this is a dream! I'll wake up soon! Ummm... You!"

Brionne: "Huh? Me?"

Chespin: "Yeah! Slap me!"

Brionne: "Huh? Why?"

Chespin: "Just do me a favor, please!"

Brionne: "Well, alright then"

Chespin: ("I should be able to wake up if she-")

With full force, Brionne slaps his cheek as hard as she could, making him fall down flat on the ground. He then got up while groaning in pain and rubbing his swole cheek.

Chespin: "Ouch... Some slap you got..."

Brionne: "S-Sorry, are you hurt?"

Chespin: "Yeah. I guess this isn't a dream after all... Argh crap! What should I do?!"

Brionne: "Well, can you even remember anything before this? Maybe something that brought you here?"

Chespin: "I... No, I have nothing. The only thing I remember is that I felt like I was falling. Then I think I got hit by a water before crashing down on some branches. That does make sense since I land in a tree, but... Where did that water come from?"

Brionne: "Ahaha, I wonder where that came from.."

She looked away while sweating nervously, he looked down at his headband for a moment and move it up with his paw so he could get a better look of the sign that was carved on the metal plate.

Chespin: "My name..."

Brionne: "Hmm?"

Chespin: "I remember my name, it's... Konoha."

Brionne: "Oh! That's a pretty nice name! Well, my name is FeMC! Nice to meet you!"

Konoha: "Well, nice to meet you too. But who the hell name their kid FeMC?"

FeMC: "Blame my parents. They may or may not be alive right now."

Konoha: "That's a mood."

FeMC: "Oh right! I have to go back to my Diner!"

Konoha: "Huh? You have a Diner?"

FeMC: "Yeah! I'm about to open it as well, so I have to go cook these berries early!"

Konoha: "You want me to help carry those? Those looks kinda heavy."

FeMC: "You will? That'll be so helpful! Thanks!"

Konoha: "Let's cut the chat, let's go!"

Konoha grabbed the basket and carries it on his arms before they quickly went off to wherever FeMC is leading him.

Konoha: "So where is this Diner you were talking about?"

FeMC: "It's in this village called the Light Village, we're lucky it's not far from this forest!"

Konoha: "It better be."

A few moments later, the two of them arrived at a small village in between the trees and there were a few numbers of pokemon residing in the houses that was made by some well made sculpted wood. What really impresses Konoha was the Jirachi status sitting in the middle of the village and a shrine that was sitting near the big tree behind the village.

Konoha: "Wow, some village you live here, FeMC."

FeMC: "No time for the view! Come on! We better head to the Diner!"

Konoha took notices that FeMC's expression was all mixed with nervousness and worries with sweats running down across her face which kinda worries him. He decides to save it for later before they finally arrives at her Diner that has the sign "Closed" on the door, they decided to enter the place via back door where the Kitchen is and he was able to see the dining area from there by the window on the wall.

Konoha: "This looks like cool Din-"

FeMC: "Quick! Where's the berries?"

She quickly took the berries off of his arms before she started working on the food she's about to make, but he could tell how heavily pressured she is.

Konoha: "Umm... Are you sure you're al-"

FeMC: "Konoha, please! You have to go open the Diner! He'll break the door again if I'm late!"

Konoha: "Wait what? Who's he-"

FeMC: "Hurry, please! Here's the key!"

She grabbed the keys from her drawer before quickly throwing it at his face and made him fell down on the floor.

Konoha: "Ouchie."

After getting the keys from her, he started walking out of the backdoor and goes around the Diner before unlocking the front door and flip the sign that's now said "Open". But he is still a bit worried by why she looked so stressed out.

Konoha: "Hmm... I wonder what really got her to go stressed out like that... It's unlike of her somehow... Why do I feel that way tho? We only just met, yet-"

???: "Hey brat."

The sound kinda made him jumped which then he turn around to see who it was.

Konoha: "Ah! Welcome to the Diner, how may I- Huh?"

Much to his surprise, he saw a buff looking Furret towering in front of him with an intimidating look on his face and some punk-like accessories around his face.

Furret: "That Brionne. Is she finished with my breakfast or what?"

Konoha: "Huh? What are you-"

Furret: "First comes first serve, so move your butt from my place!!"

The Furret firmly grasp Konoha's head before throwing him through the door and he hit his head against the chairs in the Diner which caught FeMC by surprise.

FeMC: "H-Huh? Konoha?!"

Konoha: "Ouch, first got something thrown and now got thrown..."

Furret: "Hey you!"

FeMC: "Ah! W-Welcome to my Diner! How may I help you?"

Furret: "Make me something worth eating, and fast!"

FeMC: "Y-Yes sir!!"

FeMC quickly ran into the kitchen before coming back out serving a warm berry pie for the Furret while Konoha was trying to get up while groaning in pain.

Konoha: "Ouch..."

Furret: "So, what sorry looking food do you serve for me this time, hm?"

FeMC: "I-It's a Cheri berry pie, sir. Complete with some sweetness of Moomoo milk on the side."

He starts taking a bite on the pie but then a disgusted look was carved on his face, he slam his paw against the table before glaring at her.

Furret: "What is this, huh?! You think you can pay your debt with this disgusting dish!?"

FeMC: "B-But, I was trying to make it right according the-"

Furret: "You try to defy me despite the stacking debts your Uncle has forced upon you?!"

FeMC: "I..."

Just out of nowhere, Konoha suddenly went in front of FeMC while spreading his arms as if he's trying to protect her from the bully.

Konoha: "Knock it off! She was trying her best to cook you something edible!"

FeMC: "K-Konoha.."

Furret: "Oh? You wanna defy me that much, don't you? Well sorry to break it to you, but I do what I want with her! Her uncle stack her with his own debts that would pay me, but instead he kicks the bucket and leave them to her, so I have the rights here!"

Hearing what Furret said suddenly made FeMC's eyes dropping tears while she was looking down out of fear.

Konoha: "Look here you bully! You better step out of here, now!!"

Furret: "As if I'll fell over a weakling like you!"

Furret was about to land a hard punch at Konoha, but he blocked it with both of his paws before slamming his fist onto the table which stings his arm.

Furret: "Grrh! Why you little-"

Konoha: "Nggh!"

Furret: "Cih, don't think doing this will change anything. Your reputation is already fall down short in this village after all. Don't even expect someone will come and eat your trash."

He let his fist go from his paws before grabbing the pie from the table and steps out.

Furret: "I'll just throw this trash elsewhere, hope you never got any costumers."

They could hear him laughing evilly as he steps out of the Diner which really boils Konoha's blood, he then looked back at FeMC before holding her chin as her sniffling and crying.

Konoha: "H-Hey, calm down now. He's gone, okay?"

FeMC: "You don't understand... I can never escape from him... He will always come back and haunts me... All of my uncle's debts can't be repaid that easily..."

Konoha: "Is that why he always come here just to stomp all over your cooking?"

FeMC: "Yeah... I guess I am just bad at cooking... Now I can't repay his debts because Furret has made our Diner's reputation gone low... It's all... It's all my fault..."

Konoha: "Okay, listen up FeMC! I know there is still a way for us to get this Diner up and running again! There is always a way for us to do so, alright?"

FeMC: "B-But I can't-"

FeMC got cut off when he suddenly holds both of her flippers gently as he stares into her eyes.

Konoha: "I know we can do this, alright? Trust me on this one."

FeMC: "K-Konoha.."

Konoha: "I trust how good your cookings can be, so please trust me that there is a way out of this."

FeMC: "A-Alright then. I'll... I'll trust you!"

Konoha: "Hehe, there you go! Now now, there's no need for tears anymore."

He started wiping off the tears from her face as she sniffles a bit and she is now smiling because of the comfort he's giving to her.

FeMC: "S-Say, is it okay if you have a taste of my cooking? I'm not that confident that it's actually good or not."

Konoha: "Sure! Maybe you can make me the same pie you made for that Furret."

FeMC: "Alright, I'll be back with your order!"

When FeMC crawls into the Kitchen, Konoha started setting the chairs back up in place since the chairs were all over the place because of how hard he got thrown in. Afterwards, he sat down on one of the table before he saw her coming back with the same pie again.

FeMC: "H-Here you go, hope you like it."

Konoha: "Time to chow down then! Thanks for the food!"

Out of excitement, Konoha took a slice of the pie before eating it. He suddenly froze for a moment as he starts chewing the pie in his mouth in a rather slow pace.

FeMC: "K-Konoha? I-Is something the matter?"

Konoha: "This.... THIS IS VERY SWEET!!!"

FeMC: "Huh? Really?"

Konoha: "Yeah!! This is no doubt a very good pie!! Time to chow!!"

He slams his face into the pie and devour every single pie on the plate which was unexpected to her because all this time, her dish was supposed to be a fail. But based on how much Konoha eat the pie, he is being quite serious about how delicious it was. Not too long after, he finally finishes the entire plate without a single trace before letting out a loud satisfied burp.

Konoha: "Aaaah~ That feels soo good!"

FeMC: "You... Actually liked my pie?"

Konoha: "Yeah! 10/10 no doubt! You're a pretty great cook, you'd be a good housewife if anything really."

FeMC: "Wh-What?! I-I'm flattered.."

The compliment he gave made her blush a bit as she rubs the back of her neck.

Konoha: "Although... I don't get it, why did that Furret said that your dish was a fail? This pie is pretty heavenly if you ask me."

FeMC: "Maybe it wasn't his taste? Or I forgot to put something in the pie.."

Konoha: "Well, we might as well look for any clues regarding of that. Who knows, we might be able to find something that really fits his taste."

FeMC: "I uhh... I'm still a bit scared of going to where he lives..."

Konoha: "Well, I can do a little investigation for you. Just tell me where he lives and you can leave the rest to me!"

FeMC: "Okay? Well, he lives right over there, you just have to go past the Jirachi statue and through that alley."

Konoha looked over at where she's pointing out which he quickly memorize the direction he's supposed to go.

Konoha: "Alright, I'll try my best if I have the time."

FeMC: "Thanks Konoha, you really are a helpful one."

Konoha: "Hehe, always happy to help! Want me to help out on the dirty plates?"

FeMC: "Sure! That'll be great!"

Konoha decides to grab his dirty plate as he saw FeMC walking off to the Kitchen to do some washing. But before he follows her, looked out at the window to see the Jirachi statue for a moment which caught his attention as if he's wondering about what the statue is supposed to symbolize.
